Post: why teach German?
Posted by Pat on 3/30/09
Our school has decided to phase out German from the
curriculum. Instead virtual Chinese and Arabic will be
taught in the middle and high school levels along with
Spanish. In PA there are minimal language requirements for
school districts, and they are within the requirements. I
have been asked to find rationale as to why we need to keep
the German program. If you have any sites that will lead me
to information or can give me any rationale that you may
have needed in your own districts, please help me to save
our German program. Thank you in advance.
